Team SWAT tourney being organized over at Games In Action, a Seventh Column chapter – you need to join the group to sign up, but that’s pretty simple to do if you have a B.net account. There are cash prizes for the top spots. Thanks, marshall (who saw it at Bungie.net).(Louis Wu 19:02:24 UTC)

Halo Trading Cards – on Multiple Fronts
In the past few days, we’ve heard about a couple of different projects involving Halo Trading Cards; oriol003 set up a small tutorial showing how to make your own cards (visit his site for a template), and Dain Ironfoot sent along a link to a pretty in-depth website devoted to a customizable game built in the Halo universe. There are hundreds of cards described in these pages; the one thing they’re missing are graphics of the cards themselves. (Seems like these two groups could get together and make some cool stuff…) Check out both sites – but beware, the second one is really deep, content-wise, and might suck you in.(Louis Wu 16:11:09 UTC)

Resolving Conflicts
Random 15-Year-Old noticed a video on YouTube that purports to be a Halo Intervention – family and friends come together to help a Halo addict remember what’s important in his life. I have a little trouble believing this isn’t a parody… but I guess you never know.(Louis Wu 10:57:08 UTC)

Operation: Clubbed Seal
Slacker Entertainment has released Heroes & Heretics Episode 7, Operation: Clubbed Seal for sponsors (free versions coming in a few days, as usual). Minimal humor this time around, but a finely-executed strategic rescue, and a powerful setup for the next episode. Which you might not see for a little bit; check this page for details on their summer schedule. Commentary vids… can’t wait!(Louis Wu 10:48:28 UTC)

Quantum Theory Says
Mintz pointed out a Halo-related comic at The Day It Snowed which takes a pretty interesting look at one of the questions of the ages. You know… I’m not gonna argue with that penguin’s logic. (If he is, indeed, a penguin.)(Louis Wu 14:30:29 UTC)

Ring around the enforcer
Very nice – c0ld vengeance created a new ‘3d shot’ (sort of – it’s a QuickTime movie that rotates around the image) of an Enforcer… gorgeous. He also shows you where the fire’s coming from – and it might not be what you’d expect…(Louis Wu 18:13:09 UTC)

The Creepy Guy at Work
MaritalBlaze54 Submitted ‘The Creepy Guy at Work’ to the MPRRS – a Dane Cook comedy routine, set to Halo. Clever idea, great filming, funny routine – great overall piece. For the most part, the reviewers loved it. (I did, too.) Grab a copy in WMP9 format (34.5 mb) or QuickTime format (33.5 mb).(Louis Wu 10:43:21 UTC)
